    that’s actually the first good idea ive seen somebody suggest mozilla do instead!

    For the moment you can donate to sites you like while keeping the adblocker on.

      Yup, and that’s generally what I do.

      I honestly just want to put $20 in a pool or something and have the browser deduct from that balance when I visit a site. The sites I visit more get more of my money, and I’ll get a record of how much each site changes per visitor to decide whether I want to keep going there. If they use something like GNU Taler for the accounting, the sites can’t track me at all, they’ll just get micropayments and settle up with Mozilla at some interval.

      Yet Mozilla seems to not consider this at all. Their entire messaging is “better ads,” not “alternatives to ads.”
